Young new comers with our Ford Econoline!

Janis Vanis · Mar 30, 2015

Hello van gang! My van mate and I are going to be going on a much anticipated adventure in our van while still working our 9-5's for the next 6 summer months - (goal is to save $$$ of course!

) Over the last year we grew tired of throwing our hard earned monies away to bills, and more so exorbitant amounts of rent. Just money down the drain!
SO here we are...a year later and almost done our van interior customization's

SO glad to stumble upon this blog from a few links through other van dwellers that have inspired us with their stories. We are both young (25 and 30) and are full of energy and ready to take this on! L O V E the post about city living as there is not much I can find online for this type of van dwelling style.
Hope to connect with everyone!
xo Janis

I, too, cannot wait to see some of those build pictures! It's amazing to see what we can all come up with, with a little inspiration, determination, and frustration! As well as good old fashioned blood, sweat and tears.

Hello and welcome from a fellow newcomer.

Thank you all for the kind welcomes! I love browsing this site and the topics. . .so much inspiration and great tips! I've already got a wish list on Amazon started, ha ha. Here's a recent photo I posted to one of the other threads. I must say, we don't frequent the place often but we got an AWESOME memory foam mattress from Wal Mart last month. More updates to come! :heart:
